GEOGRAPHY OF UTAH -- for students of GEOG3600 and for stray folks who come upon this site.

January 7, 2012 -

TO students of GEOG3600, Geography of Utah, University of Utah, Spring 2012. I'm impressed by your curiosity! From here you can go to your web-text chapters (click above, web-text Geography of Utah). However... this is not where homework, assignment posting, discussion groups, podcasts of lectures are based. Find those on the UofU server for "your courses." How to get there? Go to UofU main webpage, click on CIS (red logo at top and on right), login to your CIS page, from there go to GEOG3600. Clarification: there are three ways to experience the lecture content of GEOG3600... (a) read chapters and follow links on this site: (b) watch the podcast posted at UofU iTunesU; (c) listen to audio only - miss out on visuals, also at UofU iTunes. Suggestions and feedback are appreciated, and can earn extra credit.

TO others who happen on this site: Geography of Utah is a wonderful subject and I (Genevieve Atwood, Ph.D., former State Geologist of Utah) am fortuate to teach it at the Universtiy of Utah. Its text is under construction. Don't hesitate to wander in the site, it will be under construction through Spring 2012 and look much more lilke a snazzy web-text by Fall 2012. Make suggestions on content (what would you like to understand about Utah's geography, and what do you want others to understand? Most specifically, the text needs high quality, non-copyrighted illustrations and a bunch of catchy logos. If you are someone who enjoys making logos, and will volunteer your time and imagination to Earth Science Education, please contact me, genevieveDOTatwoodATgeogDOTutahDOTedu. Earth Science Education is a tiny, not for profit, whose mission is to inspire teachers of all ages to go outside and teach what they see. I'm the CEO (Chief Education Officer) of Earth Science Education and also adjunct at the University of Utah in Geography. When we help undergraduates and teachers know where they are, they learn a bit about who they are... and the world can be a more informed place, at least about Earth science.
